Patent EP-1149501-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CARMON RAFAEL
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2000-11-08
Abstract: A method of resolving collisions between transmissions in a system in which users use transceivers such as half-duplex RF transceivers to talk to each other on a common channel. During transmission, each transceiver detects pauses in its user's speech, for example using a Voice Activity Detection algorithm. During a pause, the transceiver monitors the common channel for transmissions of other transceivers. If the transceiver detects such transmissions, it disables itself temporarily from transmitting and generates a busy signal to the user.

Abstract: A multimedia optical disk contains a data area for recording a plurality of objects. The data area is composed of a plurality of small areas and one object is recorded over continuous small areas and each small area contains first and second subareas. Animation data in a unit of a prescribed period of time and auxiliary video data to be reproduced simultaneously with the animation data are recorded in the first subarea and the auxiliary video data are a menu picture containing a plurality of buttons used for choosing between various display modes. Control information is recorded in the second subarea and the control information contains button control data required for responding to the operation of the user when the menu picture in the first subarea in the same small area is to be reproduced and supplementary control data for operating the menu for the user. When the optical disk is constituted in such a way, the response and the interactive feature of the disk can be improved, because the disk can be controlled on a small area basis. In addition, since the operation of the user can be executed by using the supplementary control data for each small area, the interactive reproduction advancing performance can be improved.

Abstract: A low noise roller chain (1) includes a rigid roller (17)
made of metal and an elastic roller (18) made of elastic material
that are arranged end to end and fitted on a bushing (13) between
two opposed inner plates (14) so as to jointly form a roller assembly
(19). The width (W) of the elastic roller is 13 to 45% of the
overall width (W+w) of the roller assembly (19), and the thickness
of the elastic roller (18) is larger [by 5 to 25%] than the thickness
of the rigid roller (17) by 5 to 25% of the thickness of the elastic
roller (18). With the elastic roller (18) thus constructed, noise
generated upon abutment of the roller chain with a sprocket can
be effectively suppressed without deteriorating the durability
of the rigid metal roller (17). The elastic roller may be arranged
in a zigzag pattern in the longitudinal direction of the roller
chain.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a data processing system
and method for providing support and maintenance services to a
computer with at least reduced and preferably minimal user
interaction. Data, that ordinarily would be inaccessible to a
non-trusted applet, is, prior to any use of that data by such
a non-trusted applet collated with the permission of the user
of the computer by a trusted applet. The trusted applet has a
greater range of access to system configuration as compared to
the non-trusted applet. However, invoking a trusted applet
requires user interaction; namely, the user must grant
permission for the trusted applet to access the system
configuration information and platform identification data.
The necessary system configuration information that is
required for the provision of support and maintenance services
is harvested by the trusted applet and stored within a cookie.
Therefore, the non-trusted applet can be downloaded and can
access the relevant information without having involve the
user.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for producing a tape having a curve, especially a curved flat line compound. The inventive device consists of several clamping jaw pairs that are arranged downstream in relation to a weaving device and serve for withdrawing the individual lines. The clamping jaw pairs are moveably arranged along the direction of withdrawal, are driven and can be swivelled. In a preferred embodiment, two clamping jaw pairs are used which can be moved to-and-fro along the direction of withdrawal in an alternating manner and by means of drives that engage on the ends of the clamping jaws. The amplitude of the movement can be changed in an independent manner on both sides. The drive device can be configured as a crank gear system. A crank gear engages on each side of each clamping jaw and the lifting movement of the crank gears of one side can be adjusted in relation to the lifting movement of the crank gears on the remaining side. Different warp threads (e.g. insulated copper lines, pneumatic hoses, reinforcement threads consisting of cord, steel or carbon, waveguide cables etc.) can be processed by means of the inventive device for forming flat cable forms which are particularly used in the aircraft and motor vehicle industries.

Abstract: A brake drum includes a ring-shaped drum body (13), and a friction member (16) secured to the inner circumferential surface (18) of the drum body. Because the drum body is formed of a lightweight A1 alloy and the friction member is formed of an A1-base composite material, the brake drum can be reduced in weight as a whole. Further, because the friction member, having projecting portions (17a) formed on its outer periphery (17), is cast-enveloped by molten metal of the A1 alloy, the friction member and the drum body can be firmly fastened together. Thus, even when a great braking force is applied to the drum brake, the friction member can be prevented from being undesirably detached from the drum body.
